Today I'm walking like a cowboy and it's all due to Thursday's boxfit class, which contained an excessive amount of ducking and weaving. Those side-stepping squat movements have a diabolical effect on glutes and adductors, let me tell you!

But this morning I fronted up to the gym for my weights session - which I should have done yesterday, except I was feeling poorly, thanks to yet another head cold. (What did I do to deserve this?) I thought about skipping training when my day got off to a sluggish start with a sleep-in till almost 8:30am. Plus my throat was sore, nose stuffy and there was the aforementioned impairment of my lower half. Plenty of excuses to choose from...

But I told myself to take a teaspoon of cement and harden up, and I got through my deadlifts and squats quite well (if I say so myself). Now I'm quaking in fear at the thought of how sore I'm going to be tomorrow. That's Sunday - when I have a morning RPM class scheduled. God.

I must be mad.
